Canmore, Alberta is quickly becoming one of my favorite spots so far. Especially their Quarry Lake Park with the Off Leash Dog Park. Look at the VIEWS. Amazing both in sun and snow... and such nice people and fun big dogs each time we go.

Mount Engadine Lodge by the Spray Lakes in Alberta is MAGICAL! This swiss inspired chalet treats you like family, feeds you well, and isn't joking about the abundance of moose/wildlife sightings... and the perfect place to get snowed in.

The Uncommons store in Calgary, Alberta. A must stop, i'm blown away by how much good local design is there in addition to a lot of NOTCOT favorites. Fun art, edibles, accessories, gifts, and more. See what caught my eye.

Inspiration exploring from LA to Yellowstone National Park to roadside bison to cocktail pasties to Glacier National Park to camping at Bowman Lake and cruising the magnificent Getting To The Sun Road... and everything in between!
